Gold DVP Settlement for Korean Won (KRW) Trade

South Korea's $650B+ annual trade — semiconductors, steel, LNG, petrochemicals — flows heavily through USD banking, but increasing US-China trade tensions and correspondent bank compliance create friction.

How It Works

Commodity settlement in KRW
via physical gold

When Korean Won (KRW) payments are blocked or delayed by correspondent banking compliance, LCORE's gold DVP mechanism provides a 2-3 working day alternative. Physical gold in Abu Dhabi acts as a settlement bridge: the buyer deposits gold into DVP escrow, the seller releases the commodity, KRW payment is confirmed, gold is released.

No USD clearing. No SWIFT routing. ADGM English Law governs the transaction. Lloyd's $200M insurance throughout. Minimum $5M per transaction.

DVP Escrow

Multi-signature DVP: LCORE + buyer + seller. Gold releases only when all conditions are confirmed. Zero counterparty risk on either side of the transaction.

No USD Required

Settlement in KRW via agreed correspondent without USD clearing. LCORE's ADGM position and gold mechanism bypass SWIFT USD dependency entirely.

2-3 Working Days
